3. Product DescriptionBASIC USE• LBC Type III is a high-solids, thermoplastic-elastomeric water-based copolymer blend-ed specifically to form a durable yet flexible barrier between lead-based paint and the

environment.• LBC Type III is a encapsulant for lead-based paint formulated to offer unparalleled cov-erage, economics and paint-like aesthetics while preserving historic and architectural

detail.• LBC Type III contains Bitrex®, a very bitter-tasting anti-ingestant to discour-age oral

contact with lead paint.

COMPOSITION & MATERIALSLBC is a water-based elastomeric thermo-plastic.

SIZEPackaged in 1 gallon cans and 5 gallon

pails.

YIELDLBC will yield as much as 120 ft2 per gallon at the required thickness of 7 dry mils (14 wet

mils) in ideal conditions.

COLORS

LBC is available in white, or can be tinted to a wide array of colors. Contact the manu-facturer for more details.

LIMITATIONS

Do not use LBC Type III on friction surfaces or movable closures such as door and win-dow jambs. Do not dilute or thin LBC Type III. Some states require a surface assessment by a licensed lead inspector before appli-cation. Contact your state Department of Health, or Fiberlock for more information. The minimum application surface tempera-ture is 45°F.If applying on wood substrate, ensure mois-

ture content is 11% or below.

5. InstallationPREPARATORY WORKBefore using LBC Type III, it is important to determine if the existing paint system is stable and well-adhered. This is done by perform-ing an adhesion tape test on the surface to be coated. Perform this test at least once on each different type of surface to be coated. Clean a small area, rinse with clean water, and allow to dry. Apply a 6-10” strip of pressure-sensitive tape (packing tape). Press the tape down with the rubber end of a pencil. After 90 seconds, remove (do not yank) the tape by pulling smoothly and slowly away from

the surface. If more than one square inch of paint is removed along with the tape, the adhesion of the existing paint system is poor. When this occurs, additional preparation (i.e., wet sanding, scraping, cleaning, etc.) must be done to remove poorly adhered paint. If less than one square inch of paint is removed from the substrate, the surface is sound and can be encapsulated.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Wood: Remove or mask electrical plates,

hardware, light fixture trim, and similar fittings prior to beginning encapsulation operations. Correct defects and clean surfaces affecting work in this section. Remove existing coatings that are flaking or unacceptable condition to receive coating. (All scraping and sanding should be done wet in order to avoid creat-ing lead dust. Check local, state, and federal regulations and guidelines regarding specific lead-based paint abatement practices.) Seal any marks or defects that might bleed through encapsulant with an appropriate primer. Clean mold-contaminated surfaces with IAQ 1000, or use an EPA Registered antimicrobial disinfectant cleaner such as Fiberlock IAQ 2000, Fiberlock IAQ 2500, Shockwave or

Shockwave RTU. Rinse with clean water and allow surface to dry.

Concrete and masonry: Remove dirt, chalk, loose mortar scale, salt alkalis, oil and grease with a lead-specific detergent. Rinse well and allow surface to dry. Apply masonry condi-tioner, such as Powerstone Plus, to prevent future chalking.

Plaster, Gypsum Wallboard: Fill all surface defects, wet sand smooth and spot prime with stain blocking primer, such as Power-Block. Glossy surfaces must be wet sanded or otherwise deglossed prior to application of encapsulant.

Ferrous Metal: Remove rust and scale by wire brushing. Remove dust, dirt, oil and grease with lead specific detergent. When dry, im-mediately apply a rust-inhibiting direct to metal primer, such as Power Rust Stop, to

prevent flash rusting.

Galvanized Metal: Remove dust, dirt, oil and grease with a lead-specific detergent. For areas where the galvanization has been dam-aged, apply a rust-inhibiting direct-to-metal primer, such as Power Rust Stop, to prevent

flash rusting.

Aluminum: Remove dust, dirt, oil and grease with a lead-specific detergent. Etch the surface using an etching type metal prep, or apply a tie-coat once the aluminum surface

is clean and dry.

MIXING

Mix LBC Type III thoroughly prior to applica-tion.

APPLICATION METHODS

Apply LBC Type III only after the existing paint system has been rendered clean, dry, sound and dull. LBC Type III can be applied using a brush, roller or airless sprayer. One application by airless spray, or two applications by brush/roller are typically sufficient to achieve the required minimum dry film thickness of 7 mils. When applying LBC by airless sprayer the best results can generally be achieved by using a tip size of 0.019 to 0.021 at 2500- 3000 psi. Spray in a “crosshatch” pattern (see figure 3) to

achieve the greatest film thickness in a single coat. Clean up tools and drippings with warm,

soapy water before LBC Type III dries.

PRECAUTIONSLBC Type III must be applied when the atmo-sphere and surface temperatures during ap-plication and for 12 hours thereafter are above 45°F. Protect from freezing. Keep container

tightly sealed when not in use.

6. Availability and CostAVAILABILITYLBC Type III is available through a network of authorized distributors and paint stores. Contact Fiberlock Technologies, Inc. at 1-800-342-3755 for distributor information or visit

www.fiberlock.com.

COSTMaterial cost per square foot can be estimat-ed by dividing the price per gallon from an

authorized distributor by 120 ft2 per gallon.
